“A lot of things can happen in a football game, and although the result in Madrid was really bad, we will fight until the end.

“We know it’s going to be tough as the opponent is a very good one. We are going to try to create the right atmosphere.

“We know what this team is capable of. The thing we’ve lacked this season is consistency . We know we can reach that level but can’t do it consistently for the right amount of games.

“If we are on it tomorrow then we know it is possible, but we cannot concede another goal. We know that if we do then the tie is over.

“When I watched the game [first leg] back, I didn’t see a reason why we were 3-0 down at half-time.

“The result was much worse than the performance, in my opinion. That counts for nothing in football, though.”
